My generate*() functions have two optional extra parameters compared
with the existing ones: alphabet which defaults to 0-9A-Z (and depth
which defaults to 6000 but may change today). Only characters in the
alphabet are considered valid for accelerators so by default ó would not
be considered. You can of course change the alphabet to any strings of
Unicode characters you like, the only constraint being that the
algorithm is case-insensitive so there's no point in using both 'a' and
'A'.
